As the only digital asset full-stack solutions provider admitted into the Hong Kong SAR Government’s Office for Attracting Strategic Enterprises (OASES) program, EX.IO (Hong Kong SFC-licensed VATP under EXIO Group, Central Entity Number: BUT670) has consistently adhered to its core strategy of “By TradFi, For TradFi”, currently offering a diverse range of tokenized products including gold, equities, and funds—continuing to lead the industry in both scale and variety.
Furthermore, The Group has rapidly developed end-to-end capabilities spanning Real World Asset (RWA) issuance to secondary market offering, establishing itself as the undisputed leader in Asia-Pacific’s compliant RWA sector. As EXIO Group actively expands into key markets including the Middle East, Solidus Labs serves as a critical technology partner across its operational jurisdictions, including Hong Kong and the Middle East. This seamless integration represents not only mutual technological support, but a further elevation of compliance standards that will effectively broaden and deepen the Group’s business capabilities. Solidus Labs’ digital asset compliance platform is now being deeply integrated with EXIO Group’s proprietary trading infrastructure to serve a growing base of digital asset clients across diverse geographies.
Through this collaboration, EXIO Group expects Solidus Labs’ services to deliver the following benefits:
- 24/7 Comprehensive Surveillance: Leveraging the HALO platform, EXIO Group achieves continuous, round-the-clock monitoring of trading data across all markets, time zones, and asset classes.
- AI-Powered Manipulation Detection: HALO utilizes an AI agent network to detect complex market manipulation behaviors, including Wash Trading, Spoofing, and Layering.
- Cross-Chain Coverage: HALO’s capability to detect high-risk activities both on-chain and off-chain sets a new benchmark for institutional market integrity.
With these capabilities integrated into its trading infrastructure, EXIO Group is positioned to ensure that its rapid expansion across Asia-Pacific and the Middle East maintains compliance standards that match the most rigorous global regulatory requirements.
“For EXIO, compliance has never been merely a box-ticking exercise—it is the core competitive advantage that earns us the trust of institutional clients.” said Toya ZHANG, Deputy CEO of EXIO GROUP. “HALO’s exceptional performance in high-frequency, high-volume trading environments makes it our ideal partner. Through this collaboration, we aim to continuously enhance our compliance and security capabilities for institutional clients, supporting the Group’s broader growth trajectory.”
Solidus HALO utilizes a network of AI agents to detect complex market abuse patterns—such as spoofing, wash trading, and layering—across EXIO GROUP’s spot and off-platform channels.
“EXIO GROUP’s commitment to the highest standards of market integrity is core to their vision of empowering TradFi to embrace the future,” said Diana Xu, Head of APAC at Solidus Labs. “We are proud to support them as a trusted, secure, and compliant bridge between TradFi and digital assets. Together, we are building meaningful inroads for institutional players in Hong Kong and beyond, ushering in the next phase of digital asset adoption.”
